Tabata Bodyweight Workouts Increase Your Fat Loss Results

I love bodyweight workouts for so many reasons. You can do them anywhere whether you’re at home with even the smallest of spare space, on the road in a hotel room or even in a gym or at your local park.

They are the no excuse workout solution no matter where you are.

And what makes them even more effective, and something I’ve been doing a lot more of lately with my clients is tabata workouts.

Tabata workouts are a type of workout where you do 20 seconds of flat out exercise, followed by 10 seconds of rest. You repeat this 8 times for 4 total minutes of work.

Doesn’t sound like much does it?

Try this:

Warm up following this video

That should take about 3-5 minutes.

Then do each of these exercises for 8 rounds each – following the 20/10 formula.

1) Push Ups

You can do only 1 of these options or you can mix them around. Whatever you choose push ups for 8 rounds of 20 seconds is going to be tough!

2) Prisoner Squats
